Babel: The City and The Tower
In the city and the tower it talks about how the same language was used across the whole world. Most people settled in the land of Shinar. In Shinar the people wanted to make a city and a tower that reached to the heavens. God decided that he wanted to put people on earth to disperse and scramble the one language everyone was speaking. The people then named the city Babel because God had made a babble of the language. From there on God scattered people all over the earth and gave them different spoken languages.
